Anderson's fairy tales were not meant merely for children but for adults as well. He has also written plays, novels and travelogues. Hans Christian Andersen was born in the slums of Odense, Denmark. His father was a shoemaker and his mother worked as a washerwoman. Andersen received little early education, and as a child he was highly emotional, suffering all kinds of fears and humiliations because of his tallness and effeminate interests. Andersen's hysterical attacks of cramps were falsely diagnosed as epileptic fits. In 1816 his father died and Andersen was forced to go to work. He was for a short time apprenticed to a weaver and tailor, and he also worked at a tobacco factory. At the age of 14 Andersen moved to Copenhagen to start a career as a singer, dancer or an actor - he had a beautiful soprano voice.

Andersen succeeded in becoming associated with the Royal Theater, but he had to leave it when his voice began to change. In 1822 Jonas Collin, one of the directors of the Royal Theatre, gave Andersen a grant to enter the grammar school at Slagelse. Other pupils were much younger 11-year-olds, among whom the seventeen-year-old Andersen was definitely out of place. However, in 1828 gained admission to Copenhagen University, where he completed his education.

He found his sources of inspiration in popular tales, taking his characters and plots from legends, history or everyday life. He wrote 164 tales meant not only for children but also for adults, because of their poetic imagination and the morals hiden in every tale. The "official" Andersen illustrators were two Danish artists chosen by him to illustrate the collected Danish editions of his stories. They were Lieutenant Wilhelm Pedersen (1820-1859) and Lorenz Frolich (1820-1908).

    http://www.musicalheaven.com/h/hans_andersen.shtml
    
    Extractions: Act One: The scene is an 1830s village square in Odense, Denmark. There we see a schoolhouse, a town hall, and the cobbler shop of Hans Christian Andersen. Nearby stands a two-wheeled cart, which is large enough to hold all his equipment, and a smaller cart that can be pushed by a young boy. In “I’m Hans Christian Andersen” he introduces himself as a world-class storyteller, who will, “mend your shoes and fix your boots when I have a moment free.” The towns’ children gather round him. At the end of the song, Hans leads them around the stage a la the Pied Piper, ending up in front of his shop for story time. The schoolmaster rings the bell to announce the beginning of school—the children gather closer to Hans. He rings it again and the children continue to ignore him. In a rage, this dry, angry, apoplectic little man returns to the schoolhouse, puts the bell on his desk, picks up his hat and storms into Town Hall. Hans begins work on a shoe, and Peter, whom Hans rescued from an orphanage, is worried sick about losing Hans. Hans criticizes Peter’s handiwork and wonders if Peter really wants to be a cobbler. In the background, the children sing a repetitive, rote recital of their addition tables and Hans picks a marigold and point out an inchworm worrying away: he sings “Inchworm, Inchworm, measuring the marigolds, seems to me you’d stop and see how beautiful you are.” Hans crosses to the schoolhouse as Peter continues singing. The schoolmaster shuts the door in his face. Hans determines to leave the town. Peter is elated to find that Hans will take him along. They load the large cart and post a sign in the shop window that he’s gone to Copenhagen. They reprise “Hans Christian Andersen” as the scene becomes the wonderful seaside town of Copenhagen.

Then he gathers a large handful of flowers, which he carries up to the Almighty, that they may bloom more brightly in heaven than they do on earth. And the Almighty presses the flowers to His heart, but He kisses the flower that pleases Him best, and it receives a voice, and is able to join the song of the chorus of bliss." These words were spoken by an angel of God, as he carried a dead child up to heaven, and the child listened as if in a dream. Then they passed over well-known spots, where the little one had often played, and through beautiful gardens full of lovely flowers.

    Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) Danish writer, famous for his fairy tales, which were not meant merely for children but for adults as well. Andersen used frequently colloquial style that disguises the sophisticated moral teachings of his tales. Before achieving success as a playwright and novelist, Andersen was trained as singer and actor. Many of Andersen's fairy tales depict characters who gain happiness in life after suffering and conflicts. 'The Ugly Duckling' and 'The Little Mermaid' are Andersen's most intimate works. " He now felt glad at having suffered sorrow and trouble, because it enabled him to enjoy so much better all the pleasure and happiness around him; for the great swans swam round the new-comer, and stroked his neck with their beaks, as a welcome." (from 'The Ugly Duckling') Hans Christian Andersen was born in the slums of Odense. His father, Hans Andersen, was a poor shoemaker and literate, who believed he was of aristocratic origin. Andersen's mother, Anne Marie Andersdatter, worked as washerwoman. Although she was uneducated and superstitious, she opened for his son the world of folklore. Later Andersen depicted her in his novels and in the story 'Hun duede ikke'. Anne Marie declined into alcoholism and died in 1833 in a charitable old people's home. Andersen's half-sister Karen Marie may have worked as a prostitute for a time; she contacted her famous brother only a few times before dying in 1846.
